Wayne Rooney has issued a stark warning to his Plymouth Argyle players after their humiliating 4-0 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday on the opening day of the Championship season.
The former England captain, who was taking charge of his first competitive match for the Pilgrims, was left fuming by his side’s abject performance.
Rooney was scathing in his assessment of the display, insisting that any player who repeats such a lacklustre showing will be dropped from the team.
The manager highlighted a complete absence of basic fundamentals, such as running, tackling, and winning the ball.
The former Manchester United striker is clearly demanding a significant improvement from his squad as they look to recover from the opening day setback.
